Breakbeat.

Interesting but a little too repetitive. It's an excellent foundation for a track but lacks substance. The variation with the beats is quite good, but the song really needs more of that sort of exploration.

I agree, I guess I got a little lazy and tried to finish it up without properly polishing it or bringing out the ideas to their fullest

Looks like it's back to the mixingboard for me

But usually I get stuck at this stage on how to turn it into an 8 minute DJ-compatible track. What's the secret? Extend each section out as long as you can? (well, as far as 16 bars goes, any way)

It has hints of breakbeat and dubstep, but I would classify it as Electro.

The bass isn't hard or dirty enough for dubstep, and the breakbeat doesn't persist.

This is Dub, although it perhaps lacks some of the trippier elements found in Dub (Not to be confused with Dubstep, defo not the same).

Steal a Horace Andy sample from somewhere and smack it in with lots of delay and verb and you are away he he.
Good stuff actually.

Cheers

It's post-tech-crunkabooty-flip-flop-step. For sure.

I don't like the filtered padsound or whatever it is. It sounds like someone is semi-randomly changing the filter cutoff LFO rate.

However, the beats sound great! Both percussion and bassline are spot on. It's just a foundation to my ears, but a really good one! Which direction to go with it, I don't know. I think a lot of different directions could work for it.
